Athens Acropolis and Parthenon Walking Tour is great - This tour utilized a highly experienced guide and is a group of about 20-25 people walking together from a closely located coffee shop to the top of the acropolis and all over the Parthenon and other buildings in the area…. After walking through the acropolis ruins you end up at the state operated museum which is outstanding. Our guide really brought ancient Athens and the Parthenon to life and we really enjoyed our time. A couple of things to know…. Bring water… and comfortable shoes and clothing because it is a steady climb to the top of the acropolis and is completed with other tours that become intermingled as the day wears on. We highly recommend this vendor and appreciated having a real expert on hand that answered many questions from the group! Yes we would do this your again and felt the value was well worth what we paid in time and funds to be a part of it! Well Done!

Fantastic - We did a 5:30pm tour & it was still quite warm but not unbearable. The guide was very knowledgeable but belabored things a bit.

Guide Brought History Alive - It is as described in terms of activity level. Our guide, Annie, was so very knowledgeable. She was considerate, looking for shade and places for us to sit as often as possible. She made personal connections with us. We learned so much and had a wonderful time. The only drawback was that the experience went nearly an hour longer than advertised, which interfered with our afternoon plans.

Informative - Tour was informative but a little slow moving for three teens in our family. It was a big group so a lot to manage for the guide.
